Allow bean.off to use selectors as bean.on does

[jotadepicas]

Hi, I'm currently using:

bean.on(element, 'click', '[my-selector]', myHandler)

But I cannot use:

bean.off(element, 'click', '[my-selector]', myHandler)

Since according to the documentation bean.off only accepts this arguments:

off(element[, eventType[, handler ]])

In fact, my event is not removed and then when bean.on executes again, is added multiple times. It makes sense to me that if bean.on allows for selectors to be used, then bean.off should too, right?

Thanks!

I'm not sure, but could it be that events added with selectors, in fact cannot be removed at all?

@jotadepicas You can actually fix this issue if you trick a little bit, using namespace, you can

bean.on(element, 'click.yournamespace', 'your-selector', yourHandler)

and off the event with

bean.off(element, '.yournamespace')

Hope this can help. But it would be really nice to investigate to allow off() to use delegation.
